Yes. > If so, what are these files, why are they needed, and how are they to be > maintained? They're used to build the graphical installers. Welcome.txt is the text you see when you initially open the installer, and README.txt comes up as the "release notes" a little later into the installer. README.txt will need to be updated with the summary of what's changed in each release (the same thing the release manager does for the release notes on SourceForge). Welcome.txt won't change. If having these files in the root is bothersome, we can move them into tools/build/CMake; I'd suggest doing that for Welcome.txt but not for README.txt. - Doug _______________________________________________ Boost-cmake mailing list Boost-cmake@lists.boost.org http://lists.boost.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/boost-cmake
